I'd go with anything Logitech. But that's just me, as I have 6 Logitech wireless mice, all various brands. None of them are gaming mice, though.

If it had a charging dock, now that would be better than switching out batteries every few months. I have to swap out batteries of my M305 mouse maybe evey other month, my K250 keyboard I change about twice a year.

Number of buttons don't matter, its about DPI, and battery life for me.

I don't game all that much, but need something that can perform in game decent enough.

I use to be a "pro gamer" with a ball mouse. Even after laser mouse's came out, mostly because I was poor. DPI doesn't change your skill level. Just say'n oh and the Marathon mouse doesn't really give you much for your money. It looks like a mom mouse. Just say'n :/

I have a Logitech M705 that I use at work 9 hours a day. It uses 2 AA batteries and I've had it for almost 4 months now and have yet to change the batteries. Some of these Logitech mice get crazy good battery life.

I've got the Marathon Mouse and love it. First mouse that I've had that feels both comfortable and effortless to move. Actually on my second one and will stick with it as long as Logitech keep making them. I went from a G5 to the Marathon Mouse years ago, mostly because the wire on the G5 was driving me nuts (it got caught on everything because it wouldn't "forget" the folding from when it had been packaged), but I wanted something with a similar shape as it was a very comfortable mouse.

Batteries need changing once a year, at most (and it is in use at least 8 hours a day). The Marathon Mouse is quite incredible on that front. I can't say I've ever noticed problems with sensitivity or response compared to the G5, although I'm not into PC gaming to the point where I think I'd notice a difference. I certainly didn't when I went to the G5.

I am picking up the K750 Solar Keyboard, so I think the Marathon Mouse will go very nice with it.

The only concern is how it is in gaming, but its not the end of the world if it is bad, cause I really don't game enough to complain. Supposedly, the DPI on it is faster then my fastest mode on my old G5, so I think I will be good lol

I had the M705 for a couple of years and I don't recall having any clicking or tracking issues with it, however what I really hated and made me switch to another mouse was that dust and hair would get in the wheel way too often and prevented it from working properly. I never had the same issue on my older Microsoft mouses that didn't leave so many wide gaps around the wheel.

Also now that I think about it the batteries I tried with that mouse (Eneloops and IKEA batteries) didn't make very good contact, or maybe contacts oxidized over time, but sometimes the mouse disconnected/reconnected during use because of that.
